Skinny Shamed... Really !!!
got a robot today... one that vacuums the house. O WOW. I am very excited.
Left the SKINNY SHAMING GROUP. Got slammed AGAIN in that group, so i wrote admin and told them this was NOT the group for me and I left, blocked admin and will look for a group that wants to WORK out, eat right and not complain ... and whine... and find a gazillion excuses for not taking care of themselves.
I will NOT be shamed bc I DO take care of myself, eat well, and try to pull myself OUT of RA and CFS.... and that's exactly what I got. BULLIED... UNREAL . I've never shamed ppl bc they are overweight or underweight. I have friends of all ages and sizes... gay, lesbian, transgender, ... whatever. They are just ppl. And everyone needs to be applauded... including ME.
So there's that.
I have worked hard to stay fit, to work myself OUT of disease. and I will NOT align myself with a self defeating group of women with a shitty attitude, whining about how they just want to sit on the couch and eat chocolate and how they do not want to be on a hamster wheel all day.
Geesh. I was pissed OFF .
I work out 20 min a day at the MOST. omg.
so.... there ya go.
I like myself and I'm too old for that crap.
Going to go to bed early tonight... for a saturday night anyways.... so hope u have a great night my friends.

I had to look up, "Skinny Shaming" and that just might qualify as the most confusing surf of my internet career. Which end of the weight spectrum is being shamed? I'm not sure it matters. Body shaming is body shaming, whatever the burden being attacked.
Gentle empathy, Ginger. We don't get to control our DNA.
For what it's worth
I found allot of healing mileage in getting past my moral indignation over the need to ". . .align myself with a self defeating group of "people* with a shitty attitude, whining about how they just want to. . ." when I attended support and/or community groups. Forgiving others their human flaws helped me forgive my own human flaws, as well.
